It's common to harbor qualms about buying a "budget" instrument, especially one that was manufactured "overseas" (code for "ASIA!"), but every once in a while there comes an instrument that makes you want to check your biases and trust your ears.

With that righteous spiel in mind, give the Squire Vintage Modified Jazz Bass a listen. For under three Benjamins, the Vintage Modified Jazz features the classic aesthetic appointments of the 1970s Fender Jazz Basses, as well as some growly "Duncan Designed" single coils pickups. We think you'll agree: this bass has no right to sound so good for such a low sticker price.

  • @doctordogballs I haven't found that to be necessarily true.. from what I've seen the vintage modified and classic vibes basses have been rivaling, if not surpassing,the Mexican fenders in quality, sound and play-ability. But ones instrument is a highly specialized choice and to each his own.

  • Save up the money and get a fender.

  • Don't bother with a squier bass, ever. If you cant afford something high end at least save up for a fender. It will sound and play much, much better for not much more money

  • Hey are this basses really demanding on amplifiers and stuff? i mean will i have to spend to much for it to sound right? :/

  • @dayidayi100 Soo?

  • @BassDouche12 sweet, ill definitely be getting one of these then! thanks for the help :)

  • @TheMusicOnMax Belive me! If you can tune a Jazz Bass,, u can play anything on it! It's probably the most versitale bass u can get! Bassplayer from funk,, jazz,, heavy metal even deathcore (If you know what that is) use jazz basses. U can't go wrong with it. And yes,, it would sound awesome for stuff like RHCP :)

  • Would you say its worth selling a Squier STANDARD Jazz for this model? It sounds better- do you think its worth it? HELP!?
